Xinhua Global Service Rejects China Squeeze Manufacturing Narrative

The Xinhua Global Service issued a critique of the term "China Squeeze," characterizing the phrase as a rebranding of previous accusations such as "China Shock" and "Overcapacity." The agency argues that these labels are used to frame the manufacturing strength of the Government of China as a global threat and to suggest that its industrial growth limits opportunities for other nations.

According to the news agency, this rhetoric relies on zero-sum logic intended to contain and discredit China's development. The agency asserts that its growth is actually driven by innovation, industrial upgrading, and global cooperation. The statement maintains that rebranding the accusations does not make them more convincing.
